Re: C5 replacement - almost a disaster I've had the same problem - you have to tighten the living hell out of them, and loctite them. These bolts are the most important part of doing brakes jobs on S10s IMO, the only as important bolts that require special tightening are the lug nuts. I lost...

Re: lowering help You can also get custom angle wedges bolted to your blocks for another 1/2" from JTR, which I got to help out my pinion angle.

Re: lowering help take good pictures of the rear suspension for us :D Interesting idea with the air shocks, definitely worth a look, shocks could be holding it up a bit, especially if they were meant for a different ride height.

Re: lowering help as far as one side being higher, that's probably from the vehicle not having it's weight evenly distributed, we're not driving ferraris here :lol: Also if you have C/Os you can raise the opposite front corner to the rear and adjust leaning. blocks or leafs will bring the...

Saw a white typhoon today, was driving on Ocean and it was parked at a gas station at the corner of alemany and Ocean St in San Francisco. Pretty sure it had Silver C5 Z06 Wheels on it, and it looked clean. Anyone on the board? I can only recall really seeing 3 in my life that I can remember...

Re: lowering help Drop blocks or a crapload of money and a link setup with rear coilovers. There is no adjustment in the rear, and the springs only go in one way. Unfortunately you're looking at the lowest the rear can go without blocks or custom springs, I have Flex-a-Forms (gulp) and 3"...

Re: Drop coilovers are a great choice for the front is ride quality and level ride height is an issue.

Re: Singin' the Flex-a-Form Blues Open you eyes and compare your posts to everyone elses, you type like someone chopped your dick off and can't find the hospital and expect someone to drive your ass for no good reason. You post like a dick, that's why people are laughing at you. Your text is...

Re: Soft brake pedal, ABS/BRAKE light!! someone mentioned before it could be leaking internally isn't there a fuse for the ABS system so you can disable it and test it that way? There is on my 98, obviously 6 years can make quite a difference in designs but it seems like something standard

Re: sloppy suspension holy sh*T these things didn't come with rear sways? Yeah if you don't have a rear sway I'd toss one on ASAP, I just had worn polyuro swaybar bushings and just replacing those made a difference, I've never had the experience of driving my truck without a rear sway, but I...

Re: Coil over spring rates Good point, I'd be curious to know as well.

Re: Coil over spring rates I have 450s and unless you take alot of weight out it will ride like a BOAT. I've dropped a good 5/600 lbs out of my car and Im gonna play with some 500s soon because my 450s just done have enough spring. If you're trucks within range of getting to 3000lbs i'd...

Re: clunk while turning and bumps You are aware there's virtually no benefit to swapping to RPM arms right other than some minimal weight loss? They don't account for a lowered suspension geometry in the balljoints, otherwise that kit would be worth the money.

Re: clunk while turning and bumps Sorry I edited it, I meant turbotime, talk to Eric Rue @ turbotime. Budget coilover fitment: http://www.turbotimelounge.us/gallery/album93

Re: clunk while turning and bumps Actually a Big screen TV wouldn't reduce your trucks weight by a good 60-80lbs :D or replace your shocks, improve cornering, and ride quality by leaps and bounds. Just want to make sure, everyone knows that a working front coilover setup for these trucks...
